Reiki Certification Courses
The Purple Ray is the path of healing others and sharing divine love and compassion. This type of Love is absolute or unconditional in nature, beyond emotional feelings that we often refer to. It is the divine force that heals, connects, and empowers us, it is not ego-driven. This energy is the ultimate catalyst to connect all of humanity.
In our training, we receive and experience divine love and compassion through healing for ourselves first, and then others.
The first step under the Purple Ray is to gain energy healing skills, starting with Reiki training.
All workshops are conducted with full support, guidance, light, love, and compassion so that you can begin your Purple Ray Path at a higher vibration and consciousness.
